Jurgen Klopp insists he is satisfied with Liverpool's goalkeeping options despite reports he is unhappy with Simon Mignolet.

The Reds have managed two clean sheets in six Premier League outings since Klopp's arrival and have catapulted into title contention with two successive victories.

Mignolet, 27, has been a mainstay for the German boss but received a barrage of criticism for his blunder against Bordeaux in the Europa League.

Since the error, Liverpool have been linked with a number of goalkeepers including experienced stopper Diego Lopez - who would reportedly be used as a bargaining chip by AC Milan to sign Mario Balotelli.

However, Klopp dismissed any speculation and assured both Mignolet and Adam Bogdan that he is happy with their services.

He said: "I am absolutely satisfied with the goalkeeping situation – sorry to kill your stories! We’re not looking for a goalkeeper."

Philippe Coutinho could return to the Liverpool starting XI to face Southampton tomorrow.

Liverpool have been without Coutinho since the Brazilian picked up a hamstring injury during their 4-1 win over Manchester City.

NO DEAL: Jurgen Klopp has dismissed a deal for Diego Lopez

However, after missing the Reds' victory over Swansea, Klopp has revealed the diminutive gem could be ready for action.

He said: "Coutinho could be close, but we need to check and double check the situation."

Daniel Sturridge and Jordan Henderson will be in tomorrow's Capital One Cup squad but are to be used sparingly, according to Klopp.

Sturridge, 26, made his first appearance for the German as a late substitute on Sunday while Henderson also earned 26 minutes.

And despite a semi-final spot at stake - Klopp will not risk the pair for long periods.

He said: "We can’t ignore that there could be extra-time. 120 minutes would be too much [for Henderson and Sturridge].

"Henderson and Sturridge will be in the squad. We have these two options."
